Tirreno-Adriatico 2026 March 9-15

Easy GC win for Del Toro. He is one step above everyone and will win the stage tomorrow.

 

[yaco]

I don't think so, no. If Vendrame gets steady pace, he can win a Pau-type Pyrenees stage in the Tour.

Vendrame's sweet spot is 3000m of elevation and 3500 on a good day. Anyway, he's been an excellent signing for Jayco.

Rogla (and his dom Pellizzari) stomped by the Bull. Congrats to Valgren.

 

[fenns]

Roglic best performance since Catalunya

 

[Potomac]

I was so tense once it looked like Valgren and Alaphilipe broke away and made it interesting.

Am I alone thinking Carapaz wasn't hurting Valgren's chances?

No his attack made no difference, Carapaz isn’t in form yet anyway due to the circumstances.

 

[SafeBet]

What a week from Pinarello (Alessandro), really coming into his own after joining NSN.

 

[Kazistuta]

At least it's good to see Del Torro dominating first class races and not just farming points in smaller races like last season.

Carapaz attack was everything for Del Toro if EF took first 2 spots he would have to beat the bunch for any time.. Instead he started chasing, looked back for good news gapped everyone but Jorgenson who is further down on GC.. EF raced well all day.. Visma is leaving Jorgenson pretty isolated for a long time.. Bora was good until they weren't.. Good result for Del Toro..

And that's a reason I prefer to refer to Pidcock's team as Q36.5.

 

[Unchained]

Haha Matteo catching Toro

Good to see there was no injury after Jorgenson crashed.. He looks excellent

 

[Rob5091]

Good for Valgren for the win, otherwise, "do not adjust your set"! Normal service has been resumed with UAE and Del Toro back on the top of the GC pile.

No you're not alone. Carapaz' move was completely fine.

Hypothetically, Del Toro should've even preferred 2nd place boni's being gone if Pellizzari finished 1 spot behind him in the same time.

Carapaz' move spurred Del Toro who showed the Ecuadorian who's the boss in Italy now!

Del Toro just can't hold a grudge and mow down a meme attacker like Nibali could.

Weak sauce really

After seeing Pellizzari's form climbing great, getting second in a sprint, Del Toro is super happy with today. He had to think he was going to get worked over.. Roglic looked good also..

 

[tobydawq]

That almost brought a tear to my eye. Fantastic to see him win again.

Yeah, Lo Squalo dealt with La Locomotora perfectly during Giro 2019.

I was sort of thinking that.. He wouldn't yell out " remember the Alamo" but maybe " this ain't the Giro Richie".

Expecting Roglic to close a gap for you is maybe an even dumber decision than Napoleon invading Russia in the winter

Roglic had some good moves in the race and it's encouraging that he made the final selection, sure he couldn't jump away, but then again it's not 2023

 

[Andre]

I was hoping for Pelizarri to hang in the lead..

 

[theyoungest]

Deserved for Jorgenson to ride himself on the podium after crashing in the wheel of MVDP the other day. And certainly after inexplicably being used as a domestique for WVA once again while clearly being the stronger rider at this moment.

Del Toro's overall win seems like a done deal.

It worked for Halland at any rate

I didn't really follow the exact order right before the last separation but Roglic and Pellizzari looked pretty coordinated.. Both guys in good position with Del Toro..
